Fun Facts

I love the Arts and my second major in college was Theater Arts and Performance Studies. In high school I entered an essay competition and because of my essay I had won a coveted spot in New York City's Theater Development Fund High School Program. Through the program I was able to see six Broadway shows for free, discover the backstage secrets of the shows, and participate in after show discussions with the creative minds behind the productions.

About Me

I am University of San Diego graduate with a Bachelor of Business Administration in International Business with a focus on international and European Union Economics, and a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences in Theater Arts, with a focus in new works creation and writing. I began tutoring one-one-one 5 years ago. I have wast experience teaching students from elementary to high school levels. Taisia has also worked at the Palo Alto Children's Theatre, where she developed the performing courses for elementary students as well ran workshops for middle and high school students in play development.

I love working with children and have done many community service trips to underprivileged areas in South and Central America helping improve educational circumstances for the children residing in those areas.

I have been tutoring for the past two years. I have been working one on one with high school students on a variety of subjects from mathematics, English, SAT II English and Math subject tests, SAT, and ACT. I have been teaching English/creative writing and math courses to children in elementary and middle school. I have also taught theater education classes to children of all ages at a Children's Theater.

I am very patient and creative teacher. Thus, if a student does not understand the material, I will gladly find another way to explain it. I will persist to work with the student to make sure that his or her weak areas are being addressed and that the student is getting the most out of the lesson.
